This model features a continuous beam, also known as a Gerber beam, with alternating odd bays having hinges inserted. This setup allows the beam to exhibit increased flexibility and redistribution of moments. It's an example of optimizing structural behavior by using hinge supports in a controlled manner. Perfect for understanding the mechanics of hinged connections in long-span structures.
